Bluff Knoll Whether you climb Bluff Knoll for the view, or to be the highest thing for a thousand miles in any direction you will still have to pass this place where the road ends, and the path begins, at a sign which carries the comment - "Summit - three hours return". But if you cannot go past that place, because your used, discordant body will make of three hours an eternity, then you are trapped here, a tourist, with the mountain filling your view, following the path with your eyes until you lose it among the trees. I know that reality stands between me and the mountain; but what do I do with this need, to take the path on upward through those trees until I am the highest thing for a thousand miles in any direction, and can see everything except Bluff Knoll. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Dennis Greene 49/dx 37/ onset 32 There's nothing wrong with me that a cure for PD won't fix! email - [log in to unmask] Website - http://members.networx.net.au/~dennisg/ +++++++++++++++++++++++++++
